Is that the double Chilliwack with the weird echo chamber stuff? I love that record.

no, the double album is their second album. this is their first. which is also very cool.

that transition around the 8 minute mark from lightning shred prog into heavy boogie riff kills me to death. and then i am reborn and then i die again.

yeah, just start it at 8:00 and listen from there. yeeesh.

wwwwwwowwwww, splendid, thank you skot! Great testimonial, too. Though personally, I wouldn't want to *just* start it around the 8 minute mark (although that does kill!), cos it had even non-prog me from the beginning. Sunny Sunday fluid dynamics-->heavy boogie seems like a classic Groundhogs move, though come to think of it not sure they ever did it this well. Guy in YouTube Comments proclaims them as Scands (says they're Danish) compatible, I'd say, w Trad, Gras, Stenar at their best or best intended, and other musical ancestors of Dungen, for isnt. Same commentator recs Ache who also are Danish and Popul Vuh(Not The German Band)/Popol Ace who are Norwegian Anybody know those? Thanks again!

Fun fact: the piano player in Midnight Sun played on one of the first Albert Ayler albums, My Name Is Albert Ayler.
(Midnight Sun were originally called Rainbow Band and they put out an album a year before the Midnight Sun album with an earlier version of "Living On The Hill" which is on Youtube. They basically re-recorded the Rainbow Band album for the Midnight Sun album. Which doesn't happen every day. Both albums are great. If you need more...)

to be honest, most of the listening experience for me consists of "ïs it over yet?" it's long... very, very long. a few moments where things seem to be working up to a dramatic point, but mostly listen to this as background sound. though to be fair it is a score for an *avant-garde* ballet, so the visual component is entirely lacking. still trying to find a way into his later works.
as far as his other (earlier) compositions, would recommend eight songs for a mad king in the julius eastman recording (doesn't seem to be on youtube!) also really like this:

it's quite majestic the way "al quaeda (branch davidian)" develops from an extremely slow lurch with barely recognizable rhythm to a distorted downtempo nubeat/bodymusic kind of thing. like reverse disintegration loops but with beats: starts out sounding like dying cassette tape, ends with recognizable electronic dance form.
― brimstead, Wednesday, 29 June 2016 01:13 (eight years ago) link
//rymimg.com/lk/f/l/aded250f896359391c977480f6c0bf31/2631811.jpgwhich is pretty fantastic. Sounds about 10 years earlier than its 1975 release. But with added African tinge. But really this flits between things that sound like mid 60s garage pop and bubblegum but with beefier guitar. I think I love this lp. Now Again have a decent sounding remaster of it out.
//rymimg.com/lk/f/l/1b35f551333e7505d517a147c067cc8b/1665442.jpgHave wanted a copy of this since I got the Nu Yorica compi on Souljazz back in the mid to late 90s. I found out recently that there is a cheap Japanese reissue cd of it around so grabbed a copy of that.Great funky lp. Has Eddie Palmieri on keyboards though not sure how much that stands out.
//rymimg.com/lk/f/l/065921219309f5bd142144ada60411a0/6042955.jpgThis has some great stuff on it, mainly noticing the Affectionate Punch and 4th Drawer Down stuff I think. But have mainly been listening to the first disc. Actually some of the 2nd sounds a bit mushy but still great stuff. first disc does sound great so I think I may still need to pick up the lp reissues. I have the previous ones but that is from 15 years ago so probably do need to upgrade.

THough I think the soundfiles I'm listening to may have reversed teh titles on a couple of tracks. i was listening to a 17 minute Dreaming Girls and wondering why it was being roundly dismissed by a number of people.

@ boxedjoy - yes it is, and I finally bought Rispah too, which is also excellent, albeit pretty different. I'd quite liked the first album but not gone any further for some reason. They've developed into something really quite special.

Buzzcocks, Motorhead, Husker Du and late 80s grunge. I got a thumb drive with some live albums by Iron Maiden, BB King, Grand Funk and Pink Floyd going too in the truck.

//rymimg.com/lk/f/l/5006408c5ea6f879a6b3a55ab67c0f55/2047370.jpgwhich is great. I thought it was going to be more electric but it is great jazzy stuff anyway. Him with a small combo in 1968 playing a lot of the material from the first couple of lps plus a solo keyboard elegy to lenny Bruce. Looks like this is OOP . I just went through a load of external hard drives i no longer have connected and shifetd a load of stuff onto one of the drives I am currently using so have access to this again after not hearing it in years

― brimstead, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:51 (eight years ago) link
Made two tapes to play at the Sunburned/Dredd Foole/Tom Carter show last week. Listened to them a bunch before the show. Told Tom Carter the next day that he could have them since he came in the store looking for tapes to play in the car. I actually missed seeing Tom play though. Which was a bummer. He came too late for me. Had to get home. One Maxell 90 minute tape and one TDK 110 minute tape. Just stuff from records I had been listening to a lot lately. Thus, their inclusion here on this thread:
Tape One
Larry Coryell - Cleo's Mood (best cheap Coryell album. probably five bucks online.)
Jacques Michel - Horesco Referens (great record. epic french chanson-style vocals mixed with 60's rock and fx.)
Treeborn - Skybound Train (sold this record today in the store to an online friend who stopped by. private press 70's jazz rock with west coast rock vocals.)
Alan Bown - Make Up Your Mind
Peter C. Johnson - Snowblind (one of my fave records in recent years. major label but home-recorded and weird.)
Jack Traylor & Steelwind - Time To Be Happy
Jukka Tolonen - Aurora Borealis (Part II)
Ripple - Ripplin'
Bernard Lubat & His Mad Ducks - Pappy Thomas
Association P.C. - Frau Theunissen's Kegel (the kind of record that can blow your head off)
Dirty John's Hot Dog Stand - Blue Skies
Salvation - Salvation Jam
Midnight Sun - Living On The Hill
Tape Two
Julie Felix - Clotho's Web
Tom Lucas - Red Letter Day
Chilliwack - I Got You Fixed
Roger Saunders - Darkness
Johnny Hammond - Rock Steady
Pat Martino - Law
Country Funk - When I'm Without You
Ivar Avenue Reunion - Ride Mama Ride
Jerri Jackson - Love Me
Mutzie - Highway (essential!)
Exile - The Bobber/New Ways - Train Train
Danny Vest - Take My Love And Shove It Up Your Heart
Michael Powell - In The Silence
Henry Kaiser - Future Blues/The Jinx Blues
Unit 5 - New Leather Jacket (best song!)
Juicy Groove - Tired Of Bein' Poor
Banchee - Tom's Island
Robert Wood - The High Priestess (Vibrana)
